Methodist & Mr. 6 - Can't Do It Like Me [Tongue Flap]

First founded in 2009 by Pete Callaghan and Jack Hallett, Tongue Flap Records has become a name synonymous with exciting bass music. In two short years, Tongue Flap has accumulated a devoted fanbase, with releases from producers such as Dexcell, Mattix and Futile, DTX, Dubba Jonny, Rockso, Talon, PTEC and Xilent. With a discography boasting such a variety of talent on display, it’s no surprise Tongue Flap’s Podcast has racked up over 50,000 dedicated subscribers via iTunes alone. Geared towards the serious bass-music fan, Tongue Flap are ready to announce their latest release, the grimetinged ‘Can’t Do It Like Me’ from Methodist & Mr 6.

Launching his career from Tunbridge Wells, England, Methodist has always been close to the bass-music scene. After learning the piano, violin, guitar and drums from an early age and playing in a band at the age of 16, Methodist began to DJ, but soon yearned to channel his creativity and make his own beats. With a hometown which boasts some of the biggest Drum and Bass nights in the UK, including Bryan G and Jordan V's MOVEMENT and Dan Manic’s Half Cut, it’s no surprise Methodist quickly leaned towards producing the heaviest DnB. Drawing on his wealth of inspiration, from opera to house, as well as the thriving Tunbridge Wells scene, Methodist makes music, “to shake dancefloors and make people dance”.

‘Can’t Do It Like Me’
Beginning with a funky intro complete with sirens, ‘Can’t Do It Like Me’ kicks this release off with a bang. Packed with attitude, lush reverbed snares and a simplistic yet infectious bassline, ‘Can’t Do It Like Me’ has all the hallmarks of a classic dubstep track, but with Methodist’s unique twist. When combined with the slick, snappy lyrical flow of Mr 6, the result is a grimey tune that will rock the dancefloor, and have it singing along.

‘Can’t Do It Like Me (Dexcell Remix)’
This remix comes from Dexcell, a Watford based trio with releases on a variety of labels, including Basher’s Proximity Recordings. By combining the lyrical performance of Mr 6 and the signature horns of the original with a stripped back minimal beat, Dexcell produce a wholly different beast but with the same attitude and flair that makes the first track so infectious. Another track which is sure to be found in many a minimal set, this remix by Dexcell puts a stylish spin on the talents of Methodist and Mr 6.
